Artificial Intelligence Algorithm with SVM Classification using Dermascopic Images for Melanoma Diagnosis

Abstract

Of all suspicious pigmented skin lesions considered for analysis, a large portion is often benign. The pressure of pathology services and secondary care must be reduced throughout the patient trials using modern techniques for improving the melanoma diagnosis accuracy. Dermoscopic images obtained from digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) cameras, smartphones and a lightweight USB camera are compared using artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm for determining the accuracy of melanoma identification. Datasets are obtained from thousand test samples undergoing plastic surgery. The diagnostic trial is masked, single arm and multicentered. The controlled and suspicious skin lesions as well as the suspicious pigmented skin lesion are captured on the aforementioned cameras while scheduling for biopsy. The possibility of melanoma is assessed using deep learning (DL) techniques on the pigmented skin lesions seen in the dermascopic images for identifying melanoma. For this purpose, we train a deterministic AI algorithm based on malignancy recognition by deep ensemble and inputs from clinicians. The histopathology diagnosis is used as a standard criterion for determining the specialist assessment, algorithmic specificity, sensitivity and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC).

Comparison of decision tree with common machine learning models for prediction of biguanide and sulfonylurea poisoning in the United States: an analysis of the National Poison Data System

“…Therefore, it suggests a model structure that is understandable and accessible [40]. Some documents have shown that predicting models can identify diseases with an accuracy similar to that of human specialists [41][42][43][44][45]. In general, the prediction algorithms may not go beyond human judgment; instead, they can be a powerful auxiliary tool to circumvent when used properly by trained physicians [46].…”

A novel circuit breaker fault diagnosis method based on dense residual and attention mechanism

“…Before training the network model, the convolution kernel weights are initialized with a normal distribution, and the initial learning rate is 0.001. In order to validate the DRSAM-MCNN performance, the following methods are compared in this paper: SVM [31]: Support Vector Machine CNN-SVM [32]: Use SVM to replace the fully connected layer of CNN network, that is, CNN extracts features and uses SVM for classification.…”

An overview and a roadmap for artificial intelligence in hematology and oncology

“…Given sufficient training data, computer models have been shown to be able to perform on narrow tasks at the level of human experts (Shmatko et al 2022;Shen et al 2019;Nagendran et al 2020;Tschandl, et al 2020). For example, AI has been used successfully to diagnose diseases such as diabetic retinopathy (Natarajan et al 2019;Sosale 2020;Quellec et al 2021), melanoma (Balasubramaniam 2021;Brinker et al 2019), or lung cancer (Jacobs et al 2021;Ibrahim et al 2021) from image data. In addition, AI may be able to detect features that are not immediately apparent to the naked eye.…”
